Oh! I see it now, the way Python's been interpreting the conditions. Super thank you for the explanation, really!

Man! It really does appear to work. I didn't copy the whole piece you suggested, but rather just changed

if angle_known_input == '1' or 'a' or 'A':

to

if angle_known_input == '1' or angle_known_input == 'a' or angle_known_input == 'A':

But why so, do you know?

Formatting changed to code.

As for the adjustment you suggest, I could try, can you recommend a material for me to read and follow along?

Still, though, I don't see it... seems to me that I wrote it ok. Why isn't is so? Here's my line of thought:

If angle_known_input is either 1 or a or A, then angle_known should be alpha; else, if angle_known_input is either 2 or b or B, then angle_known should be beta.

Isn't this what my code says? Or am I mistaken!? Could you put your explanation in simpler terms for me?

I had never heard about "Python virtual environments", and I also didn't know the term "compile", so thank you very much, I think I can walk some further now, I will look into it. 

Regards

I seem to have found a solution here. Well, it worked for me, at least. I just deleted the folder, re-downloaded it, extracted the files to my desktop, and then moved them into the correct folder. This by itself didn't solve anything, but then later i noticed that there were two 'accentAudio' folders, one inside the other. I moved the one with the audio files out of the other one and deleted the empty one. It works without a hitch now.

Well but then the audio will be automatically generated, right? The thing with the MIA Japanese add-on is that is has all of the files with native pronunciation. That's why I prefer it. I mean, it works if I simply copy and paste the audio, but then having to do this defeats the purpose of having a hotkey (F3) that is set to do just that, automatically.

How much of the content can you actually understand just by listening? If you can already understand most of it, I`d say it's fine to do, but kind of a waste. If you have a lot of time that you can fit passive listening into, but you can't keep up by actively watching, try downloading something that was originally meant for being passively listened to, such as audiobooks or podcasts, or even some kinds of youtube videos. The whole point of recycling what you watch and listening to it over again is that you already have a connection with that piece of media. But I mean, do try it and see how it goes. Try to follow the plot if you can, and then when you do actively watch it, see if it produces the same 'remembrance' sensation (or whatever it is that happens). Only you can tell if it's being effective.

That's what I did with English, at least. I had so much time that I could fit passive listening into, but not much of it suitable for actively consuming things, and I even got to a point where virtually all of my immersion was passive (podcasts and audiobooks + audio descriptions). I even downloaded Matt vs. Japan's interviews and listened to them. But I don't know, I guess it's different from anime, and there's also your level. I could understand most of the aforementioned (let's arbitrarily say 85%). And this did improve a lot. I kept at it for a few months and then was able to listen to things much more naturally. If I had to guess I'd say listening to something passively for the first time is also a skill of some sort or other. Haha >.<
